“He has agreed,” Claire replied.

Sabrina was stunned.

Seeing the surprised look on Sabrina’s face, Claire smiled and said, “He’s my son. I know him well. I

don’t think he really loves Marnie. He just wants that child.”

That child would be Claire’s eldest grandchild. Since Sergio wanted the baby,

Claire couldn’t allow the baby to be an illegitimate child in the eyes of the public. Hence the reason for

the wedding. With that, Marnie would be known as Sergio’s wife, albeit for a short period. Yet, no one

would question the child’s legitimacy. And since there was no marriage certificate between them, there

would be no actual marriage to dissolve. It was a win-

win as far as Claire was concerned.

Sabrina had no idea what to say to any of this. After a while, she simply asked, “How far along is

Marnie? Is the wedding date set?”

“She said she took in around Christmas. That means she is over eight weeks pregnant. I already

discussed with Leroy and set the wedding date for next month. We will keep everything simple.”

“Well, in a few months, you will be a grandma.”

“Exactly,” Claire said with a smile.

Both Frankie and Jennie were cute, and Claire liked kids. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have allowed Marnie

to give birth to the baby.

While Claire was looking forward to having a grandchild, she did not appreciate Marnie. Just thinking of

how snobbish Marnie was the last time they met made Claire decide to train the child well after it was

born. She would ensure that the child didn’t have any of Marnie’s traits.

After chatting with Sabrina for a while, Claire said goodbye to Wanda and Sabrina. She had some

shopping to do and also had rent to collect.

In addition to Leroy’s catering company, Claire’s family also had several houses and stores which have

been rented out.

Most of the houses and shops were located in high-end residential areas and downtown areas. The

rents were paid either on a yearly basis or every six months. Claire had only one apartment near the

university where she collected rent every month.

At first, she didn’t want to rent it to that tenant because she found it troublesome to collect rent every

month. But when Claire saw that it was a girl in college who was struggling to put herself through

school and take care of the sick father, she agreed.

The tenant was kind and polite and gave Claire homemade food every time Claire went there.

The apartment was on the first floor, which was convenient.

When Claire arrived, she knocked.

“Coming,” a soft voice announced and a moment later, the door was opened. A young woman stuck

her head out and smiled when she saw Claire. “Mrs. Blakely, you are here. Please come in and have a

seat.”

“Hey, Shirley, you finished school early today? Are you doing laundry?” As Claire walked in, she saw

the working washing machine, which prompted her question. She sat down on the sofa and looked at

Shirley with a smile.

While pouring water for Claire, Shirley replied, “There is only one class this afternoon, so I came back

to clean the house. Have some water, please.”

“Thanks. I’m not thirsty yet. How is your father doing now?”

“He’s fine. He likes his job.” Shirley smiled and added, “By the way, I made some cookies. I will get you

some.”
